autoconf does not work."

     Type:  defect       |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal       |  Milestone:
Component:  ports        |    Version:  2.6.4
 Keywords:               |       Port:  automake autoconf
-------------------------+-------------------------------
 (It's not my fault—I think—but, sorry! I feel like I must be the first
 person in a while to give Leopard Intel a workout...)

 The relevant portion appears to be as follows:

 {{{
 configure:3113: checking whether autoconf works
 configure:3121: cd conftest && autoconf -o /dev/null conftest.ac
 unknown channel m4trace: -1- _m4_warn(syntax, AC_OUTPUT was never used, )
  at /opt/local/share/autoconf/Autom4te/Channels.pm line 631
         Autom4te::Channels::msg('m4trace: -1- _m4_warn(syntax, AC_OUTPUT
 was never used, )\x{a}', 'undef', 'undef', 'partial', 0) called at
 /opt/local/bin/autom4te line 1084
 configure:3124: $? = 1
 configure:3133: result: no
 configure:3136: error: The installed version of autoconf does not work.
 }}}
